Ok, note that we are updating LinBox and Givaro in 3.1.3 due to some
bugs as well as build issues.

Well, these days we seem to have plenty of methods to build databases
in Sage, but ZODB seems to be a rarther harmless and small spkg. So I

One more thing: With polybori-0.5 you need to link the extension
pbori.pyx statically since otherwise you get a segfault at exit. I am
not sure if the PolyBoRi are aware of that problem (they fixed a
similar issue for us with 0.3, but introduced another one in 0.5).
